ABSTRACT:
A massager includes an electric motor driven eccentric cam (7) in a housing (1). A moving member (8) is slidably mounted on the housing and is driven by the eccentric cam in a reciprocating, translatory motion relative to the housing. A hand grip (18) is mounted on each of the opposed ends of the moving member. The massager is held in the two hands by the hand grips. The housing reciprocates in translatory motion relative to the hand grips and imparts inertial forces to the grips and the hands for massaging action on both the hands and arms simultaneously. The massager is more easily held by arthritic hands than conventional devices. The device may be held between other paired body parts such as ankles and knees for applying massage therapy thereto. An alternative embodiment includes a series of parallel rollers pivotally attached to the housing for application to a body part such as the scalp when held by the two hand grips.
